(54) MULTIPLE SLOT LONG PHYSICAL UPLINK CONTROL CHANNEL (PUCCH) DESIGN FOR 5TH GENERATION (5G) NEW RADIO (NR)


(57) The present disclosure relates to a user equipment, UE (102), a base station and a method performed by a UE. The UE is configured to receive, from a base station, BS (160), a signaling configuring, for a PUCCH transmission to span over a plurality of slots; determine, based on the signaling, to perform an inter-slot frequency hopping for the PUCCH transmission across the plurality of slots, the PUCCH transmission in each of the plurality of slots using a single frequency resource; perform the PUCCH transmission using a first frequency resource in a first set of slots within the plurality of slots; perform the PUCCH transmission using a second frequency resource in a second set of slots within the plurality of slots, the first set of slots and the second set of slots alternating sequentially; and repeat the PUCCH transmission with uplink control information, UCI, over the plurality of slots, wherein the PUCCH transmission in each slot of the plurality of slots has a same starting symbol and a same number of symbols.
